Quoting: liamdaweAdded to the article.

That explains it.

Maybe they would like to proceed in the future similarly as Bohemia Interactive does with Arma 3. They don't advertise it officially, but new people also get the Linux binary. It is not optimal, but perhaps the best solution under the given circumstances.

Quoting: liamdaweI take issue with people making stuff up about me like you're doing, simple really. Don't make idiotic claims about me and I won't call you out on it.

Do not let them bother you. This is quite serious. Facepunsh also makes Garry's Mod. They can not get off Linux because of Valve. But Garry's mod just belongs to the core. And it's very bad if someone from Facepunsh is hostile to Linux, I think. I wonder how this could escalate like that. ARK is also not exactly a perfect port. Isn't it?

Who said what to Garry in the name of Linux? I do not understand the whole thing to be honest.

Some Questions:

Anybody knows what this means for Gifts? (I still have a Rust copy in my inventory. I bought it weeks ago.)

Can the Linux version of Rust still be played via the Family View?

Do they still support Linux for Rust servers?

Thoughts on the Corsair STRAFE RGB Mechanical Keyboard with Cherry MX Silent Switches

Thanks for the article. I am currently looking for a mechanical keyboard for CSGO. But it is important to me that there is also software for it. It's a pity that the vendors support Linux so badly. So much the better if there are free tools. I didn't know ckb-next yet. It is always impressive what people develop in their free time and what they share with others.

Minecraft 'Update Aquatic' is a huge update which brings the new launcher officially to Linux

Had a problem with the new launcher. OpenComputers machines were no longer persistent. That brought me back to the old one.

Quoting: MichaelTunnellthis looks much better . . . the old/current UI looks like a poorly designed website from 15 years ago.
True but I wish they did something about cheaters and raging kids instead. I don’t think reporting does anything at all.

They do something against cheaters:

But Doom is Vulkan and MacOS don't support Vulkan very well.

Valve seem to be tightening their rules on games with sexual content

Quoting: XpanderI don't really get it. its all wrong way imo. Violence seems to be fine, blood, gore, killing.

Not in Germany. By the way: Thanks again for gifting me L4D2. ;)
Do you remember? L4D2 (uncut) and some other Games like Dying Light are Court seized in Germany until today. I can't buy them normally on Steam. Also I can't buy a Game like Attentat 1942 in Germany without tricks.

Every country has maybe its idiosyncrasies. And the censors are pursuing their targets with an uncanny energy when it comes to computer games. At some point you just don't feel like it anymore and take it. After all, we all have other things to do in life. But it is a very worrying development.

Quoting: ageresGaben hates anime, that's the reason.

Unless it's about ponies. "Perverted". :O

I'm not interested in these Japanese girl games. But it's ultra sick when someone need to banish something like that. Adult or not: https://minecraft.novaskin.me/skin/5772784549756928/Kyu-Sugardust-Huniepop

How sick is our society today? Do we want conditions like in Iran? Get out on the street!

Quoting: KithopTreat the US as 'damaged' and route around it is all we can do, for now. Maybe something in Europe will work better, but who knows at this point. Too early to tell.

Recently I could also observe this here in Europe (Germany). We recently passed laws of this kind. Even though these laws are hardly directed against comic figures you can observe a certain chilling effect. Especially on this subject, a false suspicion is devastating. In the end, people renounce their basic rights.

The picture I linked above is from Balthus. Until a few years ago, art like this was exhibited normally in Germany. But for some time now, museums no longer dare. For me this is frightening in a country like Germany with its past of so-called degenerated art.

And the good Americans elect a president who treats women like cattle. But that's all right as long as you don't find pixel breast anywhere. It is indeed difficult to explain this world to young people.
